Answer:

3.71 m/s in the negative direction

Explanation:

From collisions in momentum, we can establish the formula required here which is;

m1•u1 + m2•v2 = m1•v1 + m2•v2

Now, we are given;

m1 = 1.5 kg

m2 = 14 kg

u1 = 11 m/s

v1 = -1 m/s (negative due to the negative direction it is approaching)

u2 = -5 m/s (negative due to the negative direction it is moving)

Thus;

(1.5 × 11) + (14 × -5) = (1.5 × -1) + (14 × v2)

This gives;

16.5 - 70 = -1.5 + 14v2

Rearranging, we have;

16.5 + 1.5 - 70 = 14v2

-52 = 14v2

v2 = - 52/14

v2 = 3.71 m/s in the negative direction

A cruise ship made a trip to Guam and back. The trip there took 12 hours and the trip

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The average speed is 8.0 km/h

Explanation:

We use the data for the return journey to calculate the distance travelled using the constant velocity equation:

s = v t =6*4=24km

Note I didn't change any units so the answer comes out in kilometres.

Now use the distance and time taken to travel to Guam to find the average speed:

v=st=24/3=8.0km/h

A child is trying to throw a ball over a fence. She gives the ball an initial speed of 8.0 m/s at an angle of 40° above the hori

EastWind [94]

Answer:

the child is 1.581 m far from the fence

Explanation:

The diagrammatic illustration that give a better view of what the question denote can be seen in the image attached below.

From the image attached below, let assume that the release point is the origin, then equation of the motion (x) is as follows:

$x - x_o = u_xt$

$\mathtt{x = u_xt \ \ \ since (x_o = 0)}$ ---- (1)

the equation of the motion y is :

$\mathtt{y - y_o =u_yt - 0.5 gt^2}$

$\mathtt{y = u_yt-4.9t^2 \ \ \ since (y_o =0)}$

$\mathtt{ 1= (u \ sin 40^0)t -4.9 \ t^2 }$

$\mathtt{1 = 8 sin 40^0 t - 4.9 t^2}$

$\mathtt{1 = 5.14t - 4.9t^2}$

$\mathtt{4.9t^2 - 5.14t +1 = 0}$

By using the quadratic formula, we have;

$\mathtt{ \dfrac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}} }$

where;

a = 4.9, b = -5.14 c = 1

$= \mathtt{ \dfrac{ -(-5.14) \pm \sqrt{(-5.14)^2 - 4(4.9)(1)}}{2(4.9)}} }$

$= \mathtt{ \dfrac{ 5.14 \pm \sqrt{26.4196 -19.6}}{9.8}} }$

$= \mathtt{ \dfrac{ 5.14 \pm \sqrt{6.8196}}{9.8}} }$

$= \mathtt{ \dfrac{ 5.14+ \sqrt{6.8196}}{9.8} \ \ OR \ \ \dfrac{ 5.14- \sqrt{6.8196}}{9.8}} }$

$= \mathtt{ \dfrac{ 5.14+ 2.6114}{9.8} \ \ OR \ \ \dfrac{ 5.14- 2.6114}{9.8}} }$

$= \mathtt{ \dfrac{ 7.7514}{9.8} \ \ OR \ \ \dfrac{ 2.5286}{9.8}} }$

$= \mathbf{ 0.791 \ \ OR \ \ 0.258} }$

In as much as the ball is traveling upward, then we consider t= 0.258sec.

From equation (1)

$\mathtt{x = u_x(0.258)}$

$\mathtt{x = ucos 40^0 (0.258)}$

$\mathtt{x = 8 \ cos 40^0 (0.258)}$

$\mathbf{x = 1.581 \ m}$

Thus, the child is 1.581 m far from the fence

How high a hill can a car coast up (engine disengaged) if work done by friction is negligible and

aev [14]

Answer:

h= 46.66 m

Explanation:

Given that

Initial speed of the car ,u = 110 km/h

We know that

1 km/h= 0.277 m/s

u= 30.55 m/s

lets height gain by car is h.

The final speed of the car will be zero at height h.

v²=u²- 2 g h

v= 0 m/s

0²=30.55²- 2 x 10 x h ( g = 10 m/s²)

h= 46.66 m
